This is just wrong. Pure and simple. Not only attempting to literally whitewash history but to eliminate everything they don't like or agree with.

Reading a book written by a Black author is not DEI.
Learning about ALL of American history is not DEI.
Convicted Felon Donald Trump & his regime want the United States to be a White, Christian, heterosexual, male dominated country.

A new North Dakota bill would require stores to pull any book with any "material harmful to minors" from the shelves.
For those in the cheap seats, that effectively means ANY mention of sex, sexuality or gender.
A bookseller could be arrested for displaying 1984.

Port: It's not just about kids, and it's not just libraries
Legislation under consideration in Bismarck wouldn't just restrict access to books in schools and libraries. The language of the bill also applies to private book stores.

It’s been a weird morning. I started my day reading about SM being a creativity killer. Then moved onto reading the executive orders Trump signed that will affect Medicare/ Medicaid, and now I’m reading about the Epstein files. #readingisknowledge
